In its consideration of the report on the UN mission in Mali (MINUSMA), the Council should:

• Ensure that the report discusses all relevant provisions related to women’s participation in conflict prevention and resolution efforts; as well as protection for women’s rights and efforts to combat human rights violations (SCR 2100, OPs 16, 25).
• Discuss gender as a cross-cutting issue, as articulated in SCR 2100 (OP 25), which is necessary for the successful implementation of MINUSMA’s entire mandate and essential for eventual peace and stability within Mali.
• Include gender-specific benchmarks and analysis, as per SCR 1889 (OP 9), in its efforts to track and measure progress in Mali, and further ensure that women’s empowerment is factored into funding disbursement and post-conflict activities.
• Support early action to stop the spread of Ebola, ensuring that public health messages and care reach women and girls.
